This one was inspired by a conversation with Nival Vixen. Our conversation was weird, fun and inspiring on several fronts. So, Nival, this one is all yours, sweetie. I hope you enjoy it!

:Fluffy:

Sheldon looked away from the monitors as the door to his lair opened up. He stood, curious, as Penny hurried into the room. It was Thursday, and usually Penny was to be found in the torture chamber, enjoying herself at the expense of some hapless captive. "Is something wrong, my dear?"

"Moon Pie!" she wailed. "It's Fluffy! He's sick. You have to come and look at him! Please, sweetie! I'm really worried!"

Sheldon rolled his eyes as she clung to his shoulders, tears soaking into his Flash t-shirt. Sometimes he was completely dumbfounded by how ruthless and violent his beautiful villainess could be one minute only to turn into a watering pot over some stupid animal the next.

He patted her back soothingly and sighed. "Penny, I will call the vet, okay?"

She looked up at him, teary eyed, and shook her head. "You can't. Fluffy ate him last month when Dr. Hill was trying to clean his teeth."

"Oh, yeah," Sheldon said calmly. "I really must find us a new vet. Very well, I'll take a look at Fluffy."

Penny kissed him warmly and led him out of the lair. Sheldon followed her through the corridors, passing by minions hard at work building his latest version of a sonic death ray. She led him out the front door and across the grounds to the moat. Just a few feet away from the utility shed lay Fluffy. Why on earth she had named a 15 foot Mugger crocodile "Fluffy", he would never understand.

He approached it confidently, stopping 6 inches from it's snout. "Remember our deal," he said sternly. "Bite me and I'll turn you into boots."

Fluffy's eyes rolled up and he opened his snout without hesitation. Sheldon knelt on one knee and looked down it's throat. He turned to Penny with a put-upon expression. Penny blushed and tried to look innocent.

Sheldon reached down the crocodile's throat and began pulling out whatever he could reach. A chewed up Coach purse. Half a foot with Passion Peach nail polish. And finally the tattered remains of a red sweater with purple flowers. As soon as the sweater was thrown on the lawn, Fluffy spun away and slipped back into the moat silently.

Sheldon accepted the wipes a minion ran over and handed him before turning to Penny. "I suppose you have an explanation for this?"

Penny narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. "I have the right to defend what belongs to me."

Sheldon smirked and walked up to her. "By feeding Ramona to your pet?"

Penny blushed slightly. "She kept trying to seduce you," she muttered.

Sheldon grabbed Penny's arms and pulled her against his chest. "Don't tell me you were jealous," he grinned.

Penny pressed against him and wound her arms around his neck. "Of that skinny brat? No. But I couldn't let all the other brats out there think I was soft, now could I?"

Sheldon smiled and dipped his head to kiss her. "Please refrain from feeding any more 'brats' to Fluffy. At least until I can find a new vet. Okay?"

Penny licked her lips and snuggled closer. "Fine."

"Hello, Doctor Cooper," a young brunette with big blue eyes gushed as she hurried over to them. "Can I just say, I love the way you used your atomic freeze bombs to destroy Australia." She ignored Penny and moved closer to Sheldon. "My name is Bethany. I was wondering if I could talk to you about the super sonic ray you are building."

Penny's eyes narrowed and she looked up at Sheldon. "You better find a vet quick."
